Case Study: Articularis Healthcare Group streamlines prior authorizations with SamaCare

Articularis Healthcare Group Implements Standardized PA Process with SamaCare

Articularis Healthcare Group, the largest rheumatology specialty group in the U.S., needed to standardize prior authorization processes across 23 locations in 8 states and make it easier for staff to manage out-of-state and unfamiliar payers. SamaCare provided a unified prior authorization platform to help AHG bring consistency and visibility to a rapidly expanding organization.

Using SamaCare’s submission selection tool, automated workflow support, centralized tracking, and real-time reporting, AHG streamlined PA submission and management across its practices. In the first two months, SamaCare helped AHG reduce time spent on submitting and tracking prior authorizations by 50% and cut payer turnaround time by 56%, while also saving staff hours on the phone and improving morale.
